Dietmar Berger - Suites & Divisions for Viola Da Gamba Solo - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Little is known about the life of Dietrich Steffkins. He worked during the apogee of solo music practice and was considered an extraordinary viola da gamba virtuoso. His compositions are collected in some funds together with the works of other musicians, and are still to be fully rediscovered. The purpose of this album is to testify to the compositional practice of an author who still offers great expressive possibilities through the research and use of the viola used in it's various forms.
